Lady Gaga Delivers Emotional Speech at L.A. Vigil For Orlando

On June 13, Lady Gaga led an emotional vigil for the victims of the Orlando massacre in Los Angeles.

Appearing before a crowd of more than 2,000 people in front of L.A.'s City Hall on Monday evening, the pop star referred to the shooting as "an attack on humanity itself." Fighting back tears of frustration, she called for solidarity following the shooting, which claimed 49 lives, and pleaded with the crowd to seek a tangible solution for gun-related violence and anti-LGBT hate.

"Tonight I will not allow my anger and outrage over this attack to overshadow our need to honor those who are grieving truly for their lost ones — lost members of the LGBT community," Gaga pledged, before reading off a list of the victims' names and ages. "I hope you know that myself and so many are your allies."
